Book cover for The Midnight Library (The Midnight World, #1)
The lonely mind in the busy city yearns for connection because it thinks human-to-human connection is the point of everything. But amid pure nature (or the ‘tonic of wildness’ as Thoreau called it) solitude took on a different character. It ...more

“I learn that day just how someone can use their privilege to champion others and help them rise too.”
Nikita Gill, The Girl and the Goddess

Matt Haig
“We only need to be one person. We only need to feel one existence. We don’t have to do everything in order to be”
Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

Fiona Valpy
“Even though it’s so painful, grief is something we have to go through sooner or later. There’s no way round it, no way to avoid it. That’s something we all learned in the war. You go through it. But if you have a friend or two to walk along that path beside you, it helps you to bear it.”
Fiona Valpy, The Skylark's Secret

Nikita Gill
“Tell your daughters how you love your body.
Tell them how they must love theirs.

Tell them to be proud of every bit of themselves—
from their tiger stripes to the soft flesh of their thighs,
whether there is a little of them or a lot,
whether freckles cover their face or not,
whether their curves are plentiful or slim,
whether their hair is thick, curly, straight, long or short.

Tell them how they inherited
their ancestors, souls in their smiles,
that their eyes carry countries
that breathed life into history,
that the swing of their hips
does not determine their destiny.

Tell them never to listen when bodies are critiqued.
Tell them every woman’s body is beautiful
because every woman’s soul is unique.”
Nikita Gill, The Girl and the Goddess: Stories and Poems of Divine Wisdom

Matt Haig
“Every second of every day we are entering a new universe. And we spend so much time wishing our lives were different, comparing ourselves to other people and to other versions of ourselves, when really most lives contain degrees of good and degrees of bad.”
Matt Haig, The Midnight Library
